Utility of the Future

At Con Edison, we strive to be an enterprise valued by all stakeholders, incorporating a focus on business, environmental, and community value as the foundation of our company strategy and our employees’ day-to-day activities. This annual report is our opportunity to share with our stakeholders our performance in the areas that impact our long-term success as well as a look forward at how we plan to drive future success. This year, a particular focus has been cast on the concept of the Utility of the Future as we work to adapt our business to the changing needs of our customers.
